One of the few pre-revolutionary residential buildings in Rostov-on-Don is a two-story house that belonged to merchant Mishurin and was built in the 1890s. Unfortunately, very little information has survived about this architectural monument of regional significance. It is only known that the owner was Rostov entrepreneur Mishurin, and the house itself was built in the characteristic style of small residential buildings from the late 19th and early 20th centuries. After the establishment of Soviet power, the house was confiscated, and the further fate of its legal owner remains unknown.

The building is located at the intersection of Socialist Street and Ostrovsky Lane, not far from the majestic city hall. However, even the proximity to the government building has not improved its condition; Mishurin's house has not undergone restoration, is used for rent by various offices, and is in a deplorable state, which can be seen with one's own eyes. Some windows are boarded up and serve as an improvised bulletin board, bricks occasionally fall out of the walls, and from the side of Ostrovskaya Street, the house looks like an abandoned shack.
